Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess the optimization of common computed tomography (CT) procedures by measuring the volume computed tomography dose index (CTDIvol) and dose-length product (DLP) during various examinations.
- - Results indicated that variations in CTDIvol and DLP were primarily due to differences in the techniques employed, with specific values established for different CT procedures across multiple hospitals.
- - The findings, including key CTDIvol values (40.9, 9.0, 9.4, and 16.2 mGy) and corresponding DLP values (900, 360, 487, and 721 mGy.cm), provide a foundation for enhancing the optimization of CT procedures in the country.
There is scanty data on overall pediatric presentations with COVID-19 in sub-Saharan Africa and none reported related to stroke. Management of acute stroke in children has been challenging due to delays in presentation and difficulties in deducing the exact etiology. This is the first such case of a stroke in a child with COVID-19 infection reported in Tanzania to the best of our knowledge.
